My Mom..a beautiful, smart, gracious person...a strong woman in a bullion ways. Always was willing to help others and give to those who needed and/or asked. A volunteer with different organizations, ALWAYS presented herself with a smile on her face; a forgiving woman; a woman of God; a leader; a promoter of value and self-worth. Anyone who knows my mother; knows what type of person she is/was...

A southern native; moved up north; with two out of three children. She worked in the healthcare/nursing field at Cumberland Manor; she then had her fourth child (me; Lakisha Williams-Drayton). After 16-18 years of nursing service; she decided to retire and do in another direction in her career (much lighter load); she furthered by branching off to work in the casino industry; after 7 seven years of working at Trump Plaza; she retired shortly; she was bored with retirement; so she took a part time job to do what she does best; what she loves...which was to help people; she worked for Easter Seals for a few years; helping disable individuals with production. It's so much great things that can be said about this woman; it's unreal!
She is loved, missed and cherished...and as for me; her youngest child; her youngest daughter; I will continue to carry out everything she taught me and I strive to be the best that I can be; to make her proud of me and for her hard efforts and work to never be done in vain.


I Love You and again; I thank you!


Your youngest daughter;

Lakisha Williams-Drayton
